Remember the early 1970s, when the Alaska Pipeline was cancelled after the environmentalists threw a hissy fit?

When the Arabs embargoed the oil from the ME, suddenly the Alaska Pipeline was back in play and soon finished.

None of the disasters claimed by the Enviros ever came to pass.

I see oil tankers heading South pulled by the BNSF, KCS and Canadian Pacific engines every day.

Once even saw an engine, Kansas City Southern de Mexico go by once.

A $9 billion oil pipeline that became a symbol of the rising political clout of climate change advocates

And in doing so dramatically increased the amount of "greenhouse gases" by causing this to have be delivered by rail and truck. Congratulations.

Truck/pipe/train it to the coast.
The ChiComs will be happy to take all you can provide.
Hirohito went to war for the oil in Indonesia.
Xiao bei din will just let Xi have all the Red Terror wants.
They own lots of the Canadian coast already.

The difference is that SloJo has the support of all the ‘right’ people.
President Trump had to work against them while dragging the Never-Trumper REMFs along with him.

"Watch Jane Fonda take credit for this “Official” cancellation."

To honor the communist bitch properly, someone needs to cancel her...

Not counting our elected officials, our federal government consists of Democrats. I would say at least 90%.

When our energy resources use are prohibited from being used by political edict, that curiously benefits Russian oil supply
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3963509/posts
Pipe line shut downs affecting our resources and supply. which result in thousands losing jobs and reliance on costly imports from foreign sources. Denying our energy resources use which if fully developed would turn out to be a major source of income when exported also gives Russia control over Germany .
Disasterous results should be expected when such edicts are issued . Those who order and support such decisions should be impeached because of the serious damage being done to the economy.
Alaska and states like Californica and every state which has so called fossil energy reserves both coal and oil and this includes llinois which has both. Cal and Alaska, TX, and possibly Penn has enough stuff there they not only get the stuff from the ground but process it into fuel so that their gas would only cost $1.50 or even less a gallon

We've gone from an ENERGY INDEPENDENT Country ( $1.89 to #2 gal ) to now paying upwards of $3 and $4 dollars plus a gallon gas at the pump.

Evil NIMBYs and corrupt competitors were behind that cancellation. They’re criminals.

The leftist Stupids won and America lost. It will hurt us in the future unless the next Republican president gives it the go again.

However, if the Repubs win both the House and Senate in 2022 and 2024 (and maybe the presidency from Comrade Harris or AOC), they will reopen the Pipeline project and tens of thousands of skilled American and Canadian workers will be put back to work again.

but the project was delayed for the past 12 years due to opposition from U.S. landowners, Native American tribes and environmentalists. leftwing nuts and Russian-backed interests.

I also wonder how this plays into Mitt Romney’s interests, and if that is why Romney has been such a douche. Canada would be a competitor against getting oil from Utah’s oil sands, would it not?
